Climatronic A/C Display Control Head Overview

An indicator lamp inside the controls indicates when the selected function is on. In addition to this, whenever a button or a control is selected, the function will briefly appear in the radio or radio/navigation system display.

To change from °C and °F in the radio or radio/navigation system display, go to the main menu in the instrument cluster. Use the switch on the windshield wiper lever (or multifunction steering wheel) to call up the main menu. Select settings, units and temperature.
